Chapter 391 Disgusting Zombie Squeezing
The thing that disgusted Harley was a giant monster made up of countless zombies.
Even Rune had to admit that this was something that made people's sanity drop wildly just by looking at it. It was simply a nightmare that was barely built up from broken bodies and twisted appetites. The little zombies were like molded clay, twisting and intertwining to form the rough humanoid outline of this behemoth.
But no one would be willing to admit that this thing has almost nothing to do with humans. With every step it takes, the parts that are barely maintained begin to fall off with a crackling sound.
Severed arms, limbs, heads, and flesh—these things would make a splattering sound when they fell to the ground. What was worse, this huge, abominable giant would reach out and catch each piece, then wipe it haphazardly on his body.
If you're lucky, these dropped items will be stuffed into some corner of its body, but sometimes, these parts can only be eaten by one of the zombies that make up the monster.
It barely maintains its integrity amidst this eternal disintegration and reorganization, and then moves toward the direction of runes.
"Although I hate to say it, I think this thing might actually have been made by a mage," Rune sighed. "And this mage possessed powerful magic, but pitifully weak control over it."
He was even reluctant to admit that the other party was a mage. Although he had never seen a proper necromancer, Rune believed that a normal necromancer would not create such a thing that fell apart while walking and looked powerful but was actually terrible.
If the necromancers who attacked Quel'Thalas were all of this caliber, Arthas wouldn't have been able to breach the Sunwell even with several times more troops.
Deathstroke glanced at Rune. "Why do you say that?"
Deathstroke knew nothing about magic, so he simply asked questions. Rune was quite generous, stating the reason directly: "Didn't you see? That thing looks huge and disgusting, but its overall structure is actually like clay; it crumbles with a touch."
"Even without any external interference, it keeps dropping things. How much combat power do you expect it to exert?" Rune pointed at the piece of trash who was constantly picking up its fallen limbs from the ground and sneered.
This thing might be able to fool superheroes like Batman and Superman who know nothing about magic, but it won't fool Rune.
That's overthinking it.
"So, that thing is weak?" Harley's eyes gleamed with intense light as she brandished her baseball bat, looking at the giant in the distance with an eager expression.
Um—this thing is relatively weak. Deathstroke could definitely defeat it easily. His armor is infused with iron, so even if he were hit by the zombie giant, he wouldn't be seriously injured.
But Harley, what you said—
Rune looked Harley Quinn up and down. At Deathstroke's request, in order to better blend into Cleveland, Harley was dressed in ordinary clothes. They couldn't even withstand the attacks of the zombie giant, let alone a small knife.
He silently withdrew his gaze.
Rune seemed to say nothing, yet he also seemed to say everything.
Upon seeing this giant, Rune felt that the mastermind behind it all wasn't very intelligent. He could understand that the other party wanted to use the sheer number of zombies to create an entity that could be immune to magical flames like Fiendfire.
In fact, the opponent did succeed. By combining zombies, this zombie giant did possess enough dark magic power, and the runes formed from this dark magic power were able to suppress the fiery aura surrounding it. But the problem was—
Rune didn't unleash his full power with Fiendfire either, and is it really a good idea to expose another weakness in order to avoid one?
He was too lazy to say anything more. As the zombie giant approached, the stench of decay seeped over him. Given that, letting it live any longer would be disrespectful to himself.
So, Rune chose two tall buildings.
In the next instant, the two reinforced concrete buildings emitted a deafening roar. Under Rune's will, the glass began to melt, and the steel framework inside the buildings began to writhe, stretch, and bend. The concrete, like mud, was arbitrarily molded by Rune.
These sturdy building materials, beneath the powerful force of magic, lost their dignity; they succumbed and reformed—
In just a few seconds, the two originally tall buildings transformed into giant arms. If Deathstroke and his crew hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, they might have thought these arms were the work of some artist.
"—Is it too late for me to learn magic now?"
Seeing the skyscrapers transform into a colossal arm supporting the sky, Deathstroke, in his shock, didn't immediately check if there were any survivors inside.
Rune shook his head. In other DC universes, Deathstroke did have opportunities to come into contact with the magical world, but despite possessing dark intelligence, he did not learn magic.
This either means that Deathstroke dislikes the DC magic system of borrowing spells, or that he knows he doesn't have much talent for learning magic.
"Okay." Deathstroke shook his head.
"Me too! Me too!" Harley patted her chest, her white flesh trembling, but this did not change Rune's answer.
"Unfortunately, you also lack the talent to learn magic."
In the DC Universe, the easiest way to learn magic is actually to watch Constantine's "exorcism" tutorial on YouTube. However, if you follow Professor Constantine's steps one by one, you will most likely summon a demon.
If you're lucky enough, you might be able to make a deal with this demon and use its power to cast spells, for whatever price you pay.
If you're unlucky—then you'll have to call the contact information under Constantine's account and ask Hellblazer to exorcise the demon for you.
These online courses, which resemble entrapment, are one of Chakorn's revenue-generating methods. However, Chakorn in the Rune Universe hasn't used this method yet because he's currently too poor to afford a computer, and YouTube hasn't been established yet.
Under Rune's will, the two newly grown arms suddenly shot out and precisely grabbed the zombie giant that was still advancing towards Rune and his group.
Pfft!
In an instant, the zombie giant was squeezed open by the powerful force, and black pus and blood splattered everywhere like a popped pimple, while the giant itself was crushed into dust.
Indeed, all the dark magic in your zombie giant has been condensed into runes, which can resist magic attacks to a certain extent. So how will you deal with me if I use polymorph to convert magic into physical attacks?
